Baton Rouge could be getting an Amazon distribution center.

The online retailer has applied for a permit to build a distribution center off of Airline Hwy and I-12 near Costco.

Celtic Group, owner and operator of Celtic Studios, currently owns the land for the proposed 21,000 square foot distribution center.

This proposed distribution center would be smaller than the previous ones popping up across the United States. It would, however, be the first one in Louisiana.

Alabama and Mississippi do not have any centers, while Texas 11 locations.-
